MANUKAU COURIER, MAY 3, 2011
In 2011 the college roll has continued to grow and
as a consequence we just await the Ministry of
Education's final approval to begin the development of
a Languages teaching block and a new small gym.
Over the summer months the college completed
repainting two of the teaching blocks and the
administration block and also completed the
refurbishment of the back stage area of the
auditorium, which proved timely as we are now able
to use these areas for teaching purposes. We are
also beginning to do the preliminary planning for the
future refurbishment of D Block.
MANGERE COLLEGE - 2011
Excellence in Education for the Students of Mangere
Once again every Year 13
student that completed the
2010 academic year left with a
National Certificate, and we were
also pleased to see pass rates
continuing to grow at Years 11
and 12.
Culturally we again had a strong
showing at Polyfest and were
very proud when our Cook Island
Group was once again placed first
in their competition.
On the sporting front we must
mention the achievements of our
Premier Girls' Volleyball team who
are Auckland Champions for 2011
and who qualified for the National
Championships where they ended
up a creditable 9th in the Honours
Division
And finally in sport, the college Senior
Mixed Touch Rugby team came 1st
in the Southern Zone and qualified
for the Auckland Championships
where they placed 5th.
Although we have only completed
one term of the year 2011 is shaping
up to be another memorable year
in the life of Mangere College.
Finally we present our Head

Mr Wong was instrumental in forming the Somerville Multicultural Business Centre in
Howick in 1992 to help migrants establish businesses.
He has been involved in starting a number of community organisations including the
Rotary Club of Somerville, the City of Manukau Education Trust and the South Manukau
Education Trust.
Mr Wong is also involved in the Chinese New Settler Trust and the Asian Community
Advisory Group for Manukau Institute of Technology and is a senior member of the
Property Institute of New Zealand.
"I have tried to create harmonious community relations between the new migrants and
the community."
He says family support has enabled him to get involved with so many organisations.
"Money is not my main objective, I try to live a meaningful life, to help people and
promote better cultural understanding," he says.
Mr Wong says he can't put a price on the value of volunteering. "I have been in real
estate and property management but they can't give me the satisfaction of working for
the community.
